‘Her heart is not in The Bronx’: Ocasio-Cortez’s constituents turn against her
NY Post ^ | March 30, 2019 | Isabel Vincent

Posted on 04/01/2019 7:38:09 AM PDT by COUNTrecount

Amid her zeal to save the world with the Green New Deal, Rep. ­Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has ­ignored residents in her own Bronx back yard.

“I thought AOC would be our savior, but that’s not the case,” complained Roxanne Delgado, a local activist who said she has tried for months to get in touch with the congresswoman for help saving an animal shelter and to clean up parks in the district.

Delgado, 40, says she has made numerous calls to Ocasio-Cortez’s offices in Washington and Queens and sent a barrage of tweets after the freshman lawmaker encouraged residents during a recent visit to a Bronx public library to hit her up on social media.

But she’s heard nothing back.

“NO email or contact on @AOC’s page except DC number which has full #voicemail and no one picks up,” Delgado tweeted on Monday.

The Post made several calls to both the Washington and Queens offices last week. The same recording at both numbers gives Ocasio-Cortez’s Web site and doesn’t allow a caller to leave a message.

a local activist who said she has tried for months...

Just how long does this "activist" believe AOC has been in office?

Didn’t like only 10% in her district even bother to vote?

The dopey narcissist hasn’t learned that Constituent Services are a very important part of the Job.

She’s not handling constituent service to well, is she?

She could be in trouble by 2022, when if, as expected, New York loses a congressional seat after the 2020 census, her district may be eliminated by the powers that be. If that happened, she could find herself having to run against an incumbent Democrat in another newly drawn district, to try to stay in Congress.

She’s getting on the bad side of the powers that be, so I would not be surprised to see Democrats try to muscle her out.

All talk, no walk. She’s a short timer. Her career will be in lobbying.

She pickled it so much working at the bar during her last job that it shriveled up and fell out of her nostril.

I would love to talk to her in 2031, when we see that life as we know it is still ongoing. We will see her prediction that we only have 12 years to address global warming proven false in that year.

12%, and of that she got just 56%. So she has a raging 7% support of her district that is now wavering.

Good luck, chica.

Has she written a book yet? There is big money to be made when someone famous writes a book.

I knew this was coming. There have been stories about how you can’t even leave a message at her office or get anyone on the phone. It didn’t take long for voters in her district to learn she doesn’t care if they exist. Her head is in the stars and she’s saving the world, one gripe at a time.

She can’t save herself..let alone the world.
Although, she will end with millions of dollars as her consolation prize.
